For the Nghi Son - Dien Chau section, contractors have poured 16,750 km of grade 1 crushed stone, 5.7 km of cement reinforced aggregate has been constructed, for the weak soil treatment items, the road is the project's progress critical line, expected to be completed in February 2023. There are about 20 km of road with weak soil that need to be treated on the route. Photo: Quang An.

One of the biggest difficulties of the route is the lack of earth mines or the fact that there are mines but they are not enough to meet the requirements. Some mines cannot be exploited due to obstruction by local people, such as Eo Gio mine in Hung Tay commune. In Dien Chau district, there are still 6 households stuck on the road leading to the overpass across Dien Doai commune. Contractors are overcoming difficulties to complete the progress according to the requirements. Photo: Construction of O O bridge through Nghi Loc district. Photo: Quang An
